Commentaries to the project of the Regulations
of the World Ethics Congress

The authors of the Regulations project are anonymous and do not mention the used sources. It lets the critics formulate comments and propositions in a free form and they will be considered in the creation of the final variant.

The Preamble

People of the world having their ethnical origine, their motherland and language, live according to the principles:

1. I am a man of the world!
2. A thought is the ideal of the human unity.
3. The conscience is the judge of human actions.

Destructive technological disasters, global natural cataclysms and increasing social shocks are products of human activities as the leading force of the neosphere. The people of the world accepting the Regulations understand a destructive and creative force of the thought. The power of a human thought with the idea of the unity can forward the people towards the renovation and the cooperation. The idea of the unity, the equality and fraternity of all the people of the Earth passing the bounds of the moral principle becomes the powerful factor of the conservation of the civilization. In the new millenium the peoples will be the motive power of the evolution. The World Ethics Congress is a connecting link to the human thought, global instrument which will be used by the peoples trough their chosen representatives to influence the future of the world development.

Why now does it become imminent to rebuild the structure of the human society and to elaborate united moral principles of the human civilization?

1. Military, political and economical means did not avert the approaching threats.
2. The state power does not contain a soul and having a big force is not tormented by remorse's and that is why it can not create conditions for the harmonious development of a person.
3. Passing the national boundaries the state power created the United Nations Organization - the international center of the political unity. But the Earth still looks like the House of tormented souls. It means that now is the time to create an auxiliary center of the human unity.

The name "the World Ethics Congress" fully reflects the principle of the coming in effect the life ethics of the whole humanity.

Part I

One of the most complicated moments will be the elaboration of the Fundamentals of the moral conception and the creation of the Global ethics code taking into consideration all the variety of the human views. The code is making the humanity approach the highest truth which should be understood in all languages, on all the continents. The scientific principle known for more than six centuries says: "Closer we are to the truth, easier the laws are describing it."
Expressing the coordinated participants opinion on the world problems the Congress is warning the people about the approaching threats and is recommending the ways of its overcoming.
Using its special methods in the interests of the conservation of the society ethics the Congress is developing a vast collaboration with the UN and also international, regional and national organizations, state and non-government organizations, leading figures of culture, science, religion, education, medicine, environmental protection, business and finances.
Every person is experiencing a struggle between the common sense and remorses being influenced by different life circumstances. The Congress participants determine the main principles which can be used for goals achievements (Art.2) and follow ideas common for all mankind. These ideas occupy a higher moral level in the dispute of the intelligence and the conscience. The Congress participants follow principles of a man of the world.

Part II

The Congress participant does not represent anybody's interests, is not a trade union delegate, a corporation representative, a country ambassador. The humanity can unite only the individualities and not abstractnesses. As an individual conscience bearer he is promoted to the Congress according to his moral qualities and his moral evaluation is executed by a representative organization of a nation or people (Art. 3). The selection on the lower levels can be stipulated by the decision of the representative organization itself if necessary.
The Regulations are not connected to the procedure of new members admittance because the application of the only (moral) qualification limiting the possibility of joining the Congress is in the competence of the representative organization of a nation or people. An application from the representative organization with enclosed minimum number of documents is enough for a claimant to receive a status of the Congress participant (Art. 6, 7).
The representative organization of a nation or a people has a right to claim from one to ten names. The uncertainty is eliminated by the rule: "From one representative organization - one vote", does not matter how many participants are behind this vote (Art.8).
The participation time in the Congress is not limited (Art.4) but it does not lead to stagnation in the Congress staff. The renovation is executed in a natural way and also the World Conscience Council (Art. 9, 10). At the same time the conservation of the stable number of the authority people is very important for the effectiveness of the Congress and its increasing role in world processes.

Part III

The Regulations determine as the main organizations the Assembly, the World Conscience Council, the Secretariate and the Ethics Councils of nations and people which are formed by the Congress participants (Art.11). Which is the main organization? The part III of the Regulations does not affect this question. In other parts the question of the power vertical line is neither solved. The Regulations accept only the hierarchy of the consciousness.
This is the basic difference of the Congress structure created not as an command pyramid but as a evolutional spiral. Each main organization in the structure of the Congress being submitted to the organizing principles of the Regulations at the same time in the ethical matters obtains the maximum amount of the autonomy (Art. 14, 23, 26, 32).

Part IV

All Congress participants are united in the Assembly. Entering the third millenium the humanity is obtaining a new mechanism vices overcoming - with the help of the ethics including four corner - stones; science, culture, education, religion. On these stones the four main earth spheres are built; political, economical, power and social. The stability of the whole construction depends on the firmness of the foundation. Now the construction is placed on the sand. Political regimes are falling apart, financial pyramids are been ruined, power structure is decaying, people masses are sinking into the chaos. The Assembly is creating the necessary ethical foundation and is giving the hope to the humanity. Some democratic methods are typical for the Assembly work including the dictatorship of the majority (Art.17). In the beginning when there is no united understanding of the moral norms it will be complicated to reach one coordinated opinion. The widely known authority of the Global Ethics Code will give a possibility not to divide the ethics in parts. Later the transit proposition of the majority dictatorship can loose its importance.

Part V

The World Conscience Council is closer to the moral ideal and the rules of self -organization are characteristic for it (Art. 18, 20). This key conception of the modern science reflects the non - lineal principle of the world including social and human systems. The integral view of the world will lead to a new, for many people unusual dialogue of a human being with himself, with other people and with higher forces of the Nature. The absolute authority in the morals belongs to a person who is known by the people as a renouncing the world temptations. The norms of Art.18 of the Regulations lay such vows on the World Conscience Council. Is it possible to find twelve persons able to accept this burden in the face of the whole word? The regularities of the complicated behavior of the self-organizing systems are not showing direct exits from the dead ends and many ordeals. Only a person with the powerful spirit can pass this, the people who are not baring the present human features, who are corresponding to the demands of the future. That is why the Regulations can not limit the time period of the self-organization (Art.20). During the period of self-organization of the World Conscience Council its functions belong to the Assembly. The decisions of the World Conscience Council are taken unanimously (Art.25). Neither disagreement nor special opinion can pass the limits of the Council. It implies the highest concord of the moral thought and imposes a special responsibility on those who are taking decisions. Having the highest moral authority the World Conscience Council has the power of a special kind. This power is not limiting anybody, is not abolishing decisions of other main organizations of the Congress but is having its independent opinion leaving for the people the inalienable right for the freedom of choice (Art.21, 26). This power is teaching.
The history of the world is full of examples of impostors. Can this be a danger? In the material world the human brain differs mostly rectilinear dependences that is why the substitution of the true one by the false one is very possible. But in reality the world is structured on the quantum principles. This means that only the definite types from a spectrum of potentially possible structures are possible in it. The nature allows not any but only determined combinations and forms. In the religions conception this is the plan of the Creator, in the scientific conception this is the definite copulation of the self-organizing forms. But in any case this regularity is so fundamental that it has a nature of interdiction principle imposed from above. The consonance of the thoughts of the Congress participants is the clot of the moral energy which will guard the process of the self-organization of the World Conscience Council.

Part VI

The Secretariate is the main permanently functioning executive organization. It releases all other main organizations of the Congress from resolving material and organizing problems that let them concentrate at most on the goals of the Congress which was the purpose of its creation.

Part VII

The Ethics Councils of nations and people should become the norm of the international law (Art.30). The problem of the morals is typical for every state and every nation. It was said and written a lot about it that is why the Congress is creating beneficial grounds for this idea understanding in many parts of the world. Such Councils at each state organization will be lanterns of the conscience and lighthouses of the human progress.
Nothing prevents from this idea distribution in branches of material production and in all non-commercial sphere.

Part VIII

All power in material matters is handed over to the Secretariate (Art.33, 34). The Congress is not executing business activities and is not aiming at profit obtaining and other material benefits. The Congress budget is approved by the Assembly. The participants form the financing by their own means, private donations and raising money (Art.35). Taking into consideration the exclusive importance of the Congress goals for the civilization survival the people and the states should provide acceptable conditions for the Congress work.

Part IX

The general law of supplements introduced to explain the physics of the microworld can be spread on the human relations. In this sphere it is formulated as a principle of equality, mutual respect of all discussion participants when every member is not only respecting other member's opinion but is ready to limit a sphere of his opinion to make it adjustable to the general limits introduced by other participants.
The Congress does not accept any methods of concord achievements and only those that lead to a progressive mutual rapprochement of positions. It is important to protect the rights of the minority and even of one vote. May be the life can approve their correctness. A prophet knows the truth but in the beginning the majority does not understand the prophets.

Part X

Under emergency circumstances the Congress is working in the special regime. A sensitive heart of any organization of the Congress can recall the others for the humanity protection against a threat. A convocation of an emergency Congress session and an extraordinary interference of the World Conscience Council are possible.

Part XI

The Congress declares the rights of the Science, the Culture, the Education as the paramount ones (Art.42). The peoples will survive not increasing the war arsenal, not destroying in threatening amount the natural resources, not oppressing the weak ones but changing orientation for the ethics in all life fields. The ethics is nessecary especially in the conflict times. Now such conflict is evident. The aggressive part in the conflict is the humanity. It has not reached the idea of the cooperation with the nature and is trying to seize the priority and to outbalance in its favour. But the inequality is the swings shaking loose the support.
Only the Science can help the people to open their eyes.
Only the Knowledge can eliminate the ignorance.
Only the Culture can fill the world with light.
Only the Education can become the norm of the life ethics.
The Congress considers the coordination of work with the social institutions of the Science, the Culture, the Education as the necessary condition of its activity and promises to help at most their development.

Part XII

The Congress recognizes cooperation with religion (Art.43) and organizes cooperation with religious institutions (Art.44). The religion is an integral part of the people's culture. The religious ethics is a part of the human ethics. The world religious demand strictly determined substantiation of their moral principles. It is becoming an evolutional factor in the relation construction of the Congress organizations and religious denominations . Fencing off the inner spiritual world of a human being the science was constructing dead - ends. But in the notions of power, energy, impulse, common field and other terms the science itself is discovering the existence of the spirit. That is why the Congress is greeting and will be promoting the return of the lost connection between the scientific knowledge and religious moral values (Art.45).

Part XIII

Coming from understanding of general laws of integration and evolutional geopolitical structures the Congress is paying special attention at the collaboration with the United Nations Organization (Art.46).
The application of any decision not excluding the UN and Congress decisions is judged by the life itself. The international law development and its effectiveness is not enough. The moral origine of a human being is poorly presented that is why human "deseases" can not be treated by political, social and other measures based only on the intelligence. The most radical methods and reforms will not improve the face of the planet if the humanity remains the same: a philosophizing one using the knowledge to satisfy its own passions and selfish purposes of separated associations.
The direct contiguity of the imperfect external existence of a human being with his inner essence is executed in the heart. The influence of moral norms, the psychical emotions and the intuition coming from the heart are able to weaken the energy of selfishness, the passion for power and gain.
The people can be united in the face of the threat when the pressure on the biosphere is exceeding the critical amount. The understanding of this planetary threat is forcing the UN and the Congress to act in common, to establish the ideals of wisdom, justice and unity (Art.47).
